Smoke Detectors in Orlando, Florida

Smoke Detectors for Orlando Homes

Smoke Detector Installation Orlando, FL_28.5384° N, 81.3789° WWe at A-Lumination Electric Inc. know that safety for you and your family is a top priority. That’s why detection of threats from a possible fire can be so critical. Smoke detectors can alert you to a fire that you were not aware of – especially if you were sleeping.

Your home requires smoke detectors. Depending on how big your home is, you may need more than one. Fires often happen when people are asleep and unaware of the growing smoke in a part of the home. Smoke alarms detect the less obvious signs of a fire and alert you to its presence before you get into serious danger.

Benefits of a Smoke Detector

Approximately 13 out of 14 homes in the US now have smoke alarms installed. Almost half of all home fires, however, occur in homes without working smoke alarms. Over 60 percent of fire deaths occur in homes without working smoke alarms. Those killed by residential fires die in a small percentage of homes – those without smoke alarms. Installing a smoke detector could save your life!

Smoke alarms provide you extra warning time when you are awake, and they will wake you if a fire occurs while you are asleep. Many people think that they will smell smoke and wake up if a fire occurs in their home, but this isn’t true. Many fires produce odorless gasses that are very toxic. Gasses can overcome those sleeping during a fire. Smoke alarms provide life-saving warnings to allow you to get out of the house to safety.

What’s more, smoke detectors are inexpensive. Battery-operated residential smoke alarms are available for less than $10. Alkaline batteries that can last for a year are available for $1 to $2 each. Some alarms are now available with long-life lithium batteries. These alarms, which typically sell for about $20, have lithium batteries that can last for up to 10 years.

Smoke Detector Installation

Proper home safety requires smoke detector installation on every floor of your home. Interconnecting your smoke alarms is the safest method of making sure they are working properly. According to the National Fire Prevention Association, people in a home with interconnected fire alarms are more likely to hear the alarm and realize there is a fire.

Professionally installed smoke alarms will be interconnected and placed in prime locations where they’re more likely to detect smoke from possible fires at the earliest possible time. However, not all smoke alarms are the same. The traditional battery-operated smoke alarm requires regular replacement of the battery. Alarms with 10-year batteries are not designed for battery replacement and must be replaced as a complete unit when their power source depletes.
